Magistrate Frederick Bishop arraigned Tarik Scott of Jackson on Monday, Sept. 9. He also is charged with using a firearm to commit a felony and resisting or obstructing police.

Bishop ordered him held in the county jail on a $150,000 bond.

Scott is accused of shooting Shaniqua Hall in the side of the head as she walked on Third Street near Washington Avenue.

Hall’s injury was not severe. She went to Allegiance Health, where she was treated and released.

She and others were leaving the Jackson and Lumen Christi high school football game, where two groups had been involved in an argument. The dispute continued as they left the game, Jackson Deputy Chief John Holda said.

The 17-year-old was arrested at his home within a couple hours of the shooting, Holda said.

He wouldn't comply with the officers' orders when they went
to arrest him, Holda said.

Court records show Scott pleaded guilty to a felony drug crime the same day as the shooting. Circuit Judge John McBain is scheduled to sentence him on the drug crime Oct. 23.
